In individuals with PKD, cysts can appear in one kidney only (unilateral
involvement), usually when the person is very young. This frequently happens at
at the time of initial presentation. However, invariably, cystic involvement
occurs in both kidneys. With prompt treatment, we can treat Unilateral
Polycystic Kidney effectively.
Symptoms of Unilateral Polycystic Kidney Disease
High blood pressure. Blood pressure is normally tightly regulated by the
kidneys and can become elevated when the kidneys fail to function optimally.
Pain in the flank, back or side of the abdomen develops with the enlargement
of the kidney.
Blood in urine. This may occur from a cysts ruptures, or from local kidney
damage.
Because Unilateral Polycystic Kidney is incurable, the conventional treatment
plan often includes management of symptoms. Practising a healthy diet, avoiding
alcohol and caffeine, getting plenty of physical exercise and avoiding the use
of cigarettes. Additionally, measures can also be carried out to control the
complications associated with the disease.
As one of the world's largest kidney disease specialized hospital, we are
constantly researching new advances. If you have been diagnosed with Unilateral
PKD, it is important to be treated by doctors who specialize in this complex
disorder.
Established in 1986, the nation's most experienced kidney experts have
accumulated rich clinical practises in treating PKD. A new breakthrough known as
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has been widely applied in our hospital and
numerous patients have regained a normal life with this therapy.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can act on all the cysts with no side
effects, but this may take a longer effect.
Under this treatment, the cysts can get smaller and smaller. Besides, there
are also substances which can help repair the damaged kidneys, to maintain and
improve the kidney function.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can restrain the growth of the cysts,
protect the kidney function from being further damaged, and thus keeping the
condition of Unilateral Polycystic Kidney under control.
